Dawning of Modern Warfare
Many changes to warfare were implemented during the Napoleon Era, none probably as drastic as the modernization of firearms. Arguably the biggest advance was the transformation of the the Musket roundball to the Rifled bullet. The Minnie Ball was invented in the late 1850's and seen wide use during the American Civil War.
